25 Goth Posts I'd Read in a Heart Beat

Sometimes, all it takes to know that I don't want to read a blog post is the title. Some of them seem dull, and I can tell by others that reading them would take up way too much of my time. There's a whole science to making people read your blog posts just by the titles, but I know nothing about this science except that it exists. Still, I know the kinds of posts I'd love to read, so here are 25 Goth posts I'd read in a heart beat.

Wow, your classes must REALLY be boring today! These are great!! :-) Hopefully one of my grandchildren will write #1 about me. But that may take awhile, since they're not born yet... And please promise you WILL let me know if you ever see a DIY for a coffin mattress!!

PREACH. That man is fucking deathless. I saw the Damned in concert a few years ago and I could not believe that Dave is my mother's age. I've been kind of obsessed since.

Actually, that concert included one of my favorite crowd-watching stories-- there was a well-dressed middle aged soccer mom standing next to me stage side in pearls and a sweater set who knew all the words to every song and had a recent glamor shot of Dave as her background on her phone. It's always reassuring to see someone who's grown out of the goth/punk aesthetic, but aren't embarrassed or apologetic about it.
